They just want the legal right to kick people off public land. This doesn’t solve the underlying problem of homelessness, it will just force them into shelters against their will or worse into jail.

The real issue is that most homeless have underlying mental health problems along with drug habits to cope. Most homeless don’t want to be forced to live in shelters because the strict no drug policy. They just want to be left alone and not forced into the system.

No government program actually helps address their actual issues, it just hides them from public view and forces them to follow someone else’s rules.

The real problem is that this will be used against people who live in their cars as they will have no legal place to live. That said, I understand that there is a huge problem with people living out of RV’s dumping sewage in the street or in storm drains.

The solution is really to offer people a place to live, camp, park their cars/RV’s thats outside the city. They need to offer free mental health services along with work opportunities so those who want to be part of society can get it on their feet.

Instead, they are using the power of the law to make it illegal to he homeless.

What? How about giving them homes?

Yeah, right now the issue is that people don’t want homeless people in the cities. So they’re making it illegal to use a public spaces. So if you were the designated certain spaces, not in the middle of the cities, that would also be a start to a solution.
